HTC One Car Kit Unboxing - One (M7) Accessories

Hello everyone. I am still trying to get the hang of doing videos so please be kind. I just did a video of the HTC One car kit. I love the HTC car kits and this one is as nice as the others I've had in the past. Actually, I like all the OEM car kits that are specifically made for a device. Normally this thing costs $60, but I had a 20% off coupon code from Lets Talk so I bought. I have now put it into my car and it is nice. If you like the automatic connection to Car Mode, it will do it immediately when the phone is slid in. There is a setting though that stops the Car Mode from launching. The one thing I noticed, after I did the video, the Car Mode isn't launched from sliding the phone into the holder, it actually initiates when the phone is connected to the connection pins.
Anyway, if you'd like to view the video, just click here
I hope you like it.

It would be nice if they designed it to work with cases... That's about the only drawback.

I agree. It can be a pain when it comes to removing it from a case. I love how compact it is.

I bought this recently and got it just 2 days ago
http://www.kenu.com/products/airframe
its awesome, sleek and generic and fits almost any phone even with the case and its very low profile.
check it out

That Airframe looks pretty cool. Is it easy to take off and put in different cars?

How well does it work with the One? What kind of case do you have on your phone?

it works great with the One, i have a regular gel case. since it expands technically even an otterboxcase might fit into that .

Brodit Holder

Any news on Brodit holders for the Galaxy S2?
Can't seem to find anything on DSL Developments (who I normally use). Timescales? or are we still looking at weeks yet. Might have to find a temporary alternative in the short term.
Why not email [email protected]? They are usually very helpful.

I'm using the passive HTC HD2 cradle. It's fits perfect at the bottom but a little bit of movement at the top where the phone is thinner. It's not loose enough it rattles or moves when you touch the screen. Volume and power buttons aren't blocked.
Might be easier and cheaper to find a used or new HD2 holder.
There may even be enough space to add a very thin skin, which is what I'll add if I can find a nice one.
Thanks will look into it.

Great to know, I currently have a HD2 with Brodit passive holder, and will receive my Galaxy S II tomorrow
I'll see if it's the same for me too...
I have an adjustable iPhone 3GS passive Brodit mount (it expands to use with gel type cases). I have a cheapo gel case on my SGII and it works fine, solid as a rock.

Okay so here's what I've done: on each side of my passive holder, I've put a few centimeters of black adhesive tape. It's the kind of heavy one, which you can buy in a hardware store...
Now the Galaxy S 2 is completely stable in a HD2 Brodit passive holder!

Nice tip there. However, I might pick up one the offical cases from P4U this week. It looks like there may be enough room for the phone to fit the holder with the case on.

Just to let you know, on Friday dsldevelopments has shipped my brodit passive holder, I should get it this week
I installed my Brodit SII-holder last Saturday. Fits perfectly. I had it pre-ordered to be one of the first to have it
I have the passive one, I use separate wires for power-in and audio-out.
I have decided to use it with a Kuda console, because that looks better in my car.
Now all I need to do is fill my SD-card with audio and I can enjoy my car-rides even better

Recommended Dock from EBay

Hi There!
Has anyone got any experience with particular cradle/docks from Ebay?
Ideally I think I would like a horizontal dock, but can do portrait.
The "USB-Sync-Cradle-Dock-Charger-Samsung-i9100-Galaxy-S-2" on eBay. (Since I've posted so little, I'm not yet allowed to post links).
I bought one'o these. Don't expect much of it, but I think it'll do what it's supposed to. I just hope there's some anti-slip rubber feet on it, so the phone can be used while mounted. Droidstuff.se (swedish site) has a very nice, special made Android universal dock in black metal (which everybody knows us scandinavians are very good at! ). It's pretty expensive, though, and availability is scarce.
Here is the one I ordered: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170633167683
I still haven't gotten it yet (even though I ordered nearly 2 weeks ago)... I will let you know what I think if / when I get it.
When it arrives, I'd be interested to know whether it looks like it'd work with a case on
ebay dock
I ordered that ebay dock, it came pretty quick, its ok for the money, it doesnt give a snug cutom fit but does just fine, i might actually order a sceond one as you can charge it from your pc/laptop or hook in a wall charger.
It look like theres enough room to work with a case but im not a big fan of cases so im unable to tell.

Thinking of that one, looks pretty good and it also charges a separate battery at the same time, however not in stock yet any thoughts?
I'd really want my device lied horizontally. Comfortable while watching movies But no such a dock in the offing.

1 already bought this one, two days on ebay. I dont like it at all as the phone sites in it almost upright, there isnt enough of an angle on it to use the phone comfortably, the angle is just too steep.
If you don't mind the angle the build quality is good otherwise.
I ordered one of these. Will report back when I get it.

Isn't that the one that doesn't actually charge the phone, though?
It charges a separate battery, lying flat in the base. But the phone simply sits in the base. Seems mad to me.
Edit: Yup, doesn't charge the phone. More pictures here. Removed link as I wasn't sure if linking to a retailer was permitted. Is copying their images ok?
I remember having a very similar dock to that for the M2000 (htc blue angel), battery charged in the back, but you could plug a mini-usb cable in to charge the device as well.....
Thats a big step backwards!

and they have worked with all my Samsung Android phones WITH "thinner" type cases. When I put the Diztronics case on the GNex it didn't fit by a hair so I took a Dremel tool and ground down the front edge just a little. It looks a LOT worse in the picture (since it is close up and due to the lighting) then it does on my desk but it could also be done a lot neater. I kind of slipped with the Dremel. For the price, these docks can't be beat. They only make them in 1 size yet they advertise them as if they are different (and jack up the prices depending on the phone). There is NO audio or video out, it's simply a charge/sync/nightstand cradle.
Today I broke down and ordered the "RND Power Solutions Deluxe 2nd Battery Charger and Data Sync Cradle" from amazon.com (too new to post a link, just give it a search).
This may be what you are looking for, because it is described as having an insert you can put in/remove depending on the case you are using.
I should have this guy in-hand Friday and I can give you a more detailed review.

Not sure you´r correct, since they are saying in the reviews, that the sparepart charger doesn´t fit their type of battery, but its ment for the GSM version. .
So IMO this one on Amazon is for the GSM-version, but still wil work for the LTE versions phones, but not the spare battery they may want to charge..
That looks to be the same as the KiDiGi one listed on the Mobi site except the Amazon price is a lot less expensive. However on the Mobi site it is listed as a GSM (i9250) version.
I've been tempted as they also have a car dock with the same form factor but I'm really looking for something that looks decent but allows me to leave my Qmadix case on the phone.

In both combinations you need to take off the insert

KIDIGI Desktop Cradle/Charging Station[FULL REVIEW] >>>.LOTS OF PICS<<<
FULL REVIEW
This is the KIDIGI Desktop Cradle/ Charging Station customed designed to fit the HTC ONE X both WITH and WITHOUT CASES on.
The following are pictures showing the dock dimentions, shipping package (review unit), usb cable (Samsung?), and how the dock fits with and without a case on
REVIEW​
Look and Feel
After constantly using the dock for the past few days, I must admit this: this dock looks amazing. Its form and design flows with the shape of the One X, and its borders are not restricting, but also curves to create round edges that really adds on to the look of this dock. Its construction is 100% plastic, but there is a little premium feel to it with its glossy lip and matte sides. Though I do not understand fully as to why there is a back piece jutting out so much, it does indeed provide the support for when the phone is placed on top.
Usability:
Advertised as the case fit version, it came with a plastic piece of adapter to be used when your phone is naked. The fit when case-less is perfect, with the polycarbonate body of the HOX just reaching the point where it would touch the plastic stand.
I was, however, very delighted to see that when the plastic adapter was taken off, the KIDIGI dock adapted all cases that I had, which was an OTTERBOX DEFENDER, and a Nillkin TPU case. The Otterbox when fitted, provided a very tight fit against the sides of the dock, where as the Nillkin left a little space, though both fit the dock perfectly. Thus, it is safe to say that any sort of case you have, would definitely fit on this dock.
It was a breeze to just dock my phone, and charge it, or simply to transfer data to my laptop. Though dock mode won’t activate by itself, this can be easily solved by using dock simulator from the play store.
Cons:
There was only one little thing that I didn’t quite like about this dock. When the phone was docked, it was quite wobbly. Yes, I know that the only link between the phone and the dock is the connector, but extra space around the front and back were a bit excessively left, and this happens both with a case and without.
Would I recommend it?
Yes, for the price and the amount of use it offers, I would definitely recommend this to any who is looking for a great looking, adaptable dock.
Feel free to ask any questions about the dock
This does look good.....

THAT is a good thing to hear. Have you tried watching movies while charging through that? Does the phone heat up? Also, how long does it take to charge through the dock?
So all it is, is a bit of plastic to prop it up, while allowing it to charge via usb?
Is there anything that uses the gold connectors?

Of course, works perfect. Playing Games too, everything for that matter.
Well, while playing heavy games it does heat up, but thats normal.
Didn't stop time from 0% to 100%, but I think it's the same with like any AC charger out there...

What do you need gold connectors for? You realize these are all digital connections right? 0's And 1's will still be 0's and 1's, even through a gold connector.
What you will have to consider is that the HDMI-cradle does not fastcharge your device, regardless what mod you make to your charger/cable. It disconnects the shortened data pins in the MHL/HDMI-path again, and only does USB-charging.
Furthermore no regular USB-connection is possible to your PC.
Expansys shipped the HDMI-version though I ordered the USB one. Been thinking about swapping it, because I need to fastcharge.
Re "gold connectors"... I think he means the pogo pins.

It works great (so much so that now my wife wants one)

The Brodit mounts ... which in my opinion are very good are available for pre-order now.

I have the official one and it works great...
Once I connect the phone, it goes automatically to car mode. Also, it seems to b pretty strong

I ordered the official car dock today and I've read it's really high quality and not to mention works with the phone really well .

I'm happy with this one, and it's only $15

Wish I could find the D160 locally. I need to see if it will fit a certain spot in my car and don't feel like hassling with shipping something back.
ProClip
I went with the ProClip Dashboard mounts for my Mustang GT and the Universal T3 adjustable so mine would fit with the Otterbox Commuter. I used them about 5 years ago and loved them.
Should have it in a couple days I will let you know how it worked out.

geez these car docks are expensive...
Really like this one, its the Mountek nGroove Universal CD slot mount (sorry I cant post the link!!) It fits in your cd slot, which I really never use. Holds the One nice and firm.

I second this. Also worked well sideways in car mode.
Of the car mounts I've used, this Arkon one is my favorite so far: http://www.arkon.com/mobile-grip/mobile-grip-dashboard-mount-mg178.html

Very well. Not sure what material the suction pad is made from but it sticks very well to my dashboard and window more so than any other car holders I have tried over the years.
Sticks a little too well for me. I can't reposition it.
